What makes you think that they are consistent with -svy-?
Yes, and to further elaborate, fitstat provides all these statistics 
involving log likelihoods, e.g. LR Chi Square values, BIC, AIC. ML 
assumptions of independent observations are violated with svy data, 
so most, if not all, of what fitstat computes is not legitimate or 
even possible with svy data.
